If somebody feels that no touch UI can be great, then I guess we can agree to disagree and leave it at that. If somebody feels that you can do both at the same time on the same device, get the best of both worlds, based on my experience I say that it isn't so... But that's a great topic for discussion, it's not a given or an absolute fact.
I like touch UI, but I don't like the Apple UI. And I don't like embedded eye candy - where selecting an item launches an unavoidable three layer translucent 3D animation that looks pretty but accomplishes nothing. I haven't said that I won't like the NIT UI changes, but I am concerned that we may go past the point of no return if there is an all-touch UI and no support for the auxiliary HW keys.
